NEW YORK, Nov. 26, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- 5W Public Relations, one of the 25 largest independent public relations firms in the U.S., today announced the addition of Free Country to its diverse roster of apparel and consumer clients. Free Country is a leading lifestyle brand that produces recreational outerwear, active wear and swimwear for men, women and children.

Established in 1990, Free Country was founded by Ira Schwartz, an avid skier who found inspiration from his own active lifestyle. From the beginning, Ira had a vision to "create authentic outerwear with a not-too-serious attitude that people will have fun wearing." Joined by his wife Jody in 1994, Free Country has established its brand through its collections of men's, women's and children's outerwear and active wear constructed from high quality, high performance fabrics that feature smart styling and classic authenticity at an accessible price point.

"We are thrilled to be working with the Free Country team," said Ronn Torossian, CEO, 5W Public Relations. "With our extensive experience in the apparel industry, we look forward to further establishing brand awareness for Free Country's high-quality, affordably priced products and the lifestyle it represents."
